State of MN One-Time Tax Rebate Amended Return

[dcharber1]

I'm using Turbotax Online Premium.  I submitted my tax forms for Fed and State of MN and they've been accepted, but I have not received my refunds.  Upon reviewing the documents, I missed entering the 1099-MISC State of MN One-Time Tax Rebate.  I can follow the instructions to enter the 1099-MISC form for the amended Federal return, but cannot see how to amend the State of MN return to remove the additional income as the One-time refund is not taxable on the State return.

You will need to file an amended return, but before you do, you need to wait until your returns are fully processed.  This means that both your federal and state refunds need to come in before you file the amended returns.  To check the status of your refunds:

• To check your federal refund go to the Where's My Refund? site.
• Go here to track your state refund.

Once the returns are processed you will need to start your amended return, to amend your return:

1. Log in to your TurboTax account
2. Go to Tax Home
3. On the FAQ's on the right side, select How do I amend my return?
4. The option of Amend Using TurboTax will show, select it.

The program will guide you as you make the changes necessary, you do not need to enter anything other than what you are changing. 

To enter the Minnesota Rebate follow the steps below:

1. Launch TurboTax and select Wages and Income
2. Scroll down to Other Common Income and select Start by 1099-MISC
3. Enter your 1099-MISC and select Continue
4. Enter MN Rebate for the description and Continue
5. On the Does one of these uncommon situations apply? screen, select None of these apply
6. On the Did this involve work that's like your main job? screen, select No, it didn't involve work like my main job
7. On the How often did you get this income? screen, select I got it in 2023 and Continue
8. On the next screen, select No, it didn’t involve an intent to earn money and Continue
9. On the next screen, select No, if you don’t have any more forms to enter and Continue

You will see the income on line 8z with a description of Other Income (which will flow to line 8 of your 1040). When you pay for TurboTax, you will be able to view your forms.

Follow the steps below to deduct your MN tax rebate from your income so you won’t pay state tax on it: 

1. Select Prepare State from menu on left side and select Start
2. Select MN and select Continue
3. Scroll through the screens and when you get to Tell Us About Other Income Adjustments, select Received a one-time tax rebate for tax year 2023 from the State of Minnesota and select Continue
4. Enter the Rebate Payment Amount

You will see the subtraction of your MN rebate from your income on line 7 of your MN M1 form since your rebate is not taxable in MN.

Thank you Leticia,  I waited until both returns were accepted, and actually received my Fed refund (but not my State), made the changes to amend my forms, and e-filed my amended Federal, and am mailing my amended State forms today.
